Phoenix Suns vs Cleveland Cavaliers Full Highlights 3rd QTR | Apr 2 | 2024 NBA Regular Season

Was up to scoring with a little mid-range pullup but this is a guy that you know takes great pride in team defense so I would expect to see the defense intensify and some different looks from them defensively streu on the catch and shoot three well that will help them on the

Defensive end if they can make shots they have not been making shots they shot 46% in that first half and when you missed it’s tough to get back down on the defensive end Beal on the drive and kick they swing it around sets up a look

For Booker who passes it up he inserted to pass it the three no he was like well nerk hit one the other night in New Orleans three on the shot clock nerk trying to sneak one up and challenged that time by Moy forcing him into the

Miss so they passed up a couple good shots Garland on a drive went for big number in the first meeting between these two clubs and he is capable of getting it rolling had just eight points last night Garland now the only score for Cleveland in double figures with

11 B with the feed up top ran will back it out with Mitchell defending KD crosses him up Mitchell able to knock it out of his hands now Mitchell had his hands all over his hips Frank Boogle wanting a whistle and a foul Garland operating Baseline Mitchell with a floater like

Field may have gotten a piece but able to still get it up an in Sun had a 28-point lead in that first half and we’ve seen leads dissipate this season Boston lost one 30 points ahead and they lost last week Booker able to navigate up the screen gets the 18-footer but won’t

Knock it D about that the teams you know sometimes ner winding up tried to throw it down over Allen but the sun’s sometimes not staying with that same kind of pacing that got them that 28-point lead and I think KD right there he can get that shot anytime in the rhythm of

The game but for me move the ball I I know we’re moving it we’re moving it a little bit too much but let’s get great shots especially when we’re trying to get back Garland circling Baseline gets it to Mobley Moy across the Lane with a jump hook yeah good penetration by the

Cavaliers right now 90 run Elb Durant there with the save able to get it back into the hands of Booker book scissor through the defense gets it up gets it in subtleties you you pointed out what nerk did there one of the subtleties that often gets lost you know for fans they don’t see that but

His recognition of those situations on a multitude of Mitchell with 11 Garin with 11 Moy with 11 Moy looking for more and he’ll and we know your feet can be moving as long as you got position but definitely through the shoulder into it well not surprising you can see the

Cavs have come to the talk about these runs and this is where the Suns have to compose themselves and and stay in this both teams with 11 turnovers Mitchell tried to turn the corner able to do so now Frank’s letting them play it out the Cavs have put together a 14-3

Runs it was his Suns who had three or four of those kind of runs in the first half which built that big lead back across the beal nerk using that big body goes to work in side on Allen won’t get it grab all of a sudden it’s an 11-point game

Durant tries to respond with the three and that quiets the crowd for a moment that’s only a second three and a huge one Garland able to get to the Elbow won’t get the bounce Allen nearly had the rebound but nerkish nice job to knock it away book with the dribble

Hesitation gets in on streu hits the deck no foul call Frank vog is incensed true to the lead pass Garland with a finger roll somehow misses the bunny Advanced pass up ahead to Booker sets up the Run by Mitchell and an easy two and I love the pump fake guys want

To block a shot they go flying by good control by Booker Mitchell seven and the quarter Able to carve his way deep into the paint make it nine now he’s got 18 for the game did not play in the first meeting between these two teams and they’re a different team clearly when he is on the floor 34 and 17 with him 12 and 13 without

Him Beal up the screen get the three-point look we saw that John kapari is not in his seat in this third quarter I said where are you he said I’m hungry I’m eating I said get back out here in the East with six to play a game

And a half lead over Orlando in New York for number three Milwaukee lost earlier tonight to Memphis that’s back-to-back losses now to two of the worst teams in the league by the Bucks and it’s opened the door here for the Cavs and maybe that’s exactly what JB bigger staff to him at

Halftime well you know Boston’s got the the huge lead they’re number one and Booker number one knocks that one down 26 for book another wildly efficient night nine of 16 in the field three of five from Downtown Mitchel off the screen finds Allen rolling to the basket short arms in that was Kevin Durant defensively just really intimidated Him Yang with a quick re Booker a perfect eight of eight from the line 29 Points five assists Suns responded after that big Cleveland run with an 112 run of their own Garland on the drive inside Booker alertly letting that one go out of Bounds at the sun’s activity

Forcing them to maybe take quicker shots than they want to and just jumping in the gaps you see that they’re on their toes and that makes a a difference when on offense you’re not in a rhythm Levert able to get the strip gets it back from Yang across to Mitchell quick trigger

Three the rant snaps it away the [Applause] rebound six boards on the night for KD along with 23 points well and you can see the Suns have changed their lineup too Kevin Durant bringing the ball down KD going right at Yang that was one of the things that Frank boogo talked about

Too is their willingness especially over the last month to change it up a little bit where Brad will often times run the show in the first quarter up and that makes a difference when you have a point guard and you have people who know how to distribute the ball your Shooters can

Do what they do best and score the ball ran holding up the screen get to De Booker sweeping left hand can’t get the bounce Le cut off nice on ball defense by O’Neal gets it back to Mitchell as bowl and Eubanks both com to the scores table

Mitchell in the drive no tap in by Allen yes well nerkish did a nice job on Mitchell but then the block out Allen was wide open to get that tip in KD taking his time Allen stepping out get to the Baseline the Pelicans go along with five assists and the

Efficiency Mitchell swings a pass into the corner Yang unable to connect bu a nice job going out there on that time suns have done a nice job of getting on the shooters from Beyond The Arc of the Cavaliers here tonight he said Cavs have been one of the best three-point

Shooting teams as Drew was winding up to throw it down but met of the rim by Moy up ahead to lever Miss handles how about B going down and knocking that ball away think that clearly caught Levert off guard B in his body control you saw that

Little Euro Step there he reached the second line of defense very well book sporting the uh new book ones the Havens which he he shared revealed maybe a little secret today at shoot around Haven of course his beloved dog and he said that uh Haven man’s best friend as

He went on to say would be making his uh Global debut very soon so it’s got all in a state of anticipation I don’t think he’s got booties for [Laughter] him right now Haven to be proud of Pops as he raises up for three there b trying to

Slip inside and steal it away in the hustle play for b b teas and low six points in [Applause] Cleveland book on the drive hangs fires a pass across the bll shock clock winding down no problem this is the loudest this place has been all night right

There they love him some b b you think he’s worked on his three lever responds with a three of his own just a seventh made three of the night for the Cavs as suns have doubled them up in that department 14 of 23 be on the drive fires across open

Shooter Eric Gordon long rebound stru go ahead to Mitchell finds the trailing levers and lever Donovan Mitchell with mask off heading into the locker room so we’ll see if that spells the end of the night for Mitchell the Suns pushing the lead back to 21 now after the

Cavs had closed the Gap with a big 21 to9 scoring run Booker with a floater doesn’t matter hangs and hits safe to say he’s happy to be home Levert fires the three stru able to sneak in on the Baseline for the putot back he’s 4/1 of a second on the clock

And after the k
